I think I'm about ready to try a tune on my 2103 FR-S. I have the GReddy SP Elite exhaust and GReddy Momentum intake installed. Which tune do you recommend? What kind of support do you provide?

I believe the recommend the Stg1 tune for CAI/Exhaust etc, still running the stock header. Stg2 is recommended for those with bolt ons, including an aftermarket header iirc.

Graham (their tuner) provides excellent service. He'll help you if you have any questions or concerns, and once you send him a datalog he is pretty prompt at replying. In fact, a part I ordered was backordered when I got my tune, and Graham agreed to look over my datalogs once the part was installed just to make sure the tune was ok. That's pretty good service if you ask me. I still need to send him that log tho lol. Overall I am very happy with my tune from them, the butt dyno is happy, and I plan to go back to them if I decide to go e85 or run an aftermarket header.

I've got a CAI and full Perrin 3" exhaust and Revworks UEL. I decided to go with Ft86speedfactory for a stage 2 tune and Graham provided excellent service and was very prompt to respond to emails. I am very satisfied with the post-tuning results. I would definitely recommend going with these guys.

Hey guys, installed your UEL header a while back and loving the results. I also envisioned putting a tune on that car just new to the game (and cautious). What all is involved and is this something I can do in my garage on a saturday morning?

Figure I should make the most of the TRD intake, TRD catback and FT86SF UEL header I have installed.


Thanks!

I just came to buy a stage2 tune this morning to replace my old FA20CLUB tune I am running since 2013.

My setup is :

- Perrin light weight crank pulley
- AFE Takeda Intake (Oiled version)
- Borla UEL header
- FA20Club Overpipe
- HKS Resonated Front Pipe
- Greddy SP Elite Axleback muffler

I cant wait to see my new logs with their tune and see how is Graham's service either.

I'm trying to do the same. Does the 200 dollar charge still apply to the replacement tunes they provide

Yes.

It is cheap and you get a great service via email from the tuner.

Hi there! Have you guys tuned any of the 2017s? I was thinking about doing the stage 2 tune plus license (I already have the cable). How is the process of tweaking tunes if needing to be done?
